Installation
Mounting the Pump
Using the rubber dampening feet, bolt or screw the pump to a solid surface above the water-line in a dry
area with adequate ventilation. Mount the pump horizontally, or if vertically, with the pumphead facing
down. The pump is not submersible.
Horizontal Mounting
Installing the Plumbing
Use of flexible hose of a size corresponding to that of the included port fittings is recommended. Attach the
hose firmly to these fittings using two stainless steel hoseclamps per fitting. Insert the fittings o-ring side
first into the pumphead and then push the retaining clips in to secure the fittings. A Jabsco 20 or 40 Mesh
strainer should be installed on the intake side of the pump. The pumphead will have an arrow on it indicating
flow direction. The vast majority of pumps are left to right as shown below.
